Comprehension against the sky, creating the Five Thunders in the real world
Chapter 541 Life extension
Moreover, his son had just put on a satisfying show for him. Joseph was in a very good mood. He leaned back in his chair and said in a relaxed tone, "I am indeed a dilettante, but how many people in the world are as pretentious as me?"
There was a complacent tone in his words. The young man did not say anything. After all, his father was undoubtedly one of the top people in the world. Although he was hiding underground, he was already the real ruler of the country.
It is worth mentioning here that it was this old man who ordered the relevant departments to stop pursuing Lin Beichen when he was causing trouble. An underground ant could reach out to the military... The young man was silent for a while and then suddenly asked: "Actually, you were afraid of me in the past years, right?"
The old man's face turned hideous in an instant. "What are you talking about, you beast?" he roared.
However, the young man was not surprised by his father's reaction. After all, the people with fewer shortcomings are more likely to lose their composure because of their shortcomings.
"I've long wondered why you did this. What good would it do you to let me live in such a miserable fate all the year round?"
He ignored his father, who was becoming more and more murderous, and continued to talk to himself, "Then I began to doubt whether you really sought out these outstanding people just to lay the foundation for your great cause? But why were those outstanding people the ones who did the experiment in the beginning? You didn't think at first that this experiment could help you achieve your great cause, and you didn't know the rules of this experiment..."
"Then I finally understood that you were afraid, terrified, and jealous. There is no doubt that you have been struggling all your life and you have no sense of security. You are afraid that the power in your hands will be taken away..." At this point, Joseph suddenly roared: "Kill him for me!"
Everyone immediately raised their guns and prepared for action, but it was too late. The young man had already killed his father in a flash. No one knew that Joseph, who was full of malice when his child was just born, had allowed his child to undergo that experiment. Now the young man has become so powerful that it is difficult for ordinary people to understand.
"But...is power really that important?"
he muttered.
At the same time, in another place, Li Congjing was walking forward silently, holding the machine in her hand. When she was halfway there, she suddenly stopped and turned around and asked coldly, "Who's there?"
The disguise just now seemed to have consumed all her strength, and even her always lovely voice disappeared.
Lin Beichen showed up helplessly. He smiled bitterly in his heart, as if he always ran into this group of guys unexpectedly. "Actually, we have no intention of offending you."
He explained with a stiff smile.
Now his spiritual energy was almost exhausted and he had almost no ability to escape, and fighting with Li Congjing...
To be honest, even Lin Beichen in his prime did not have the confidence that he could defeat this seemingly cute but actually crazy woman in front of him. Looking at Lin Beichen, Li Congjing showed a complicated expression on her face, and she remembered the real cause of Joseph's death.
After a stalemate, the atmosphere between the two became increasingly tense.
"Lin Beichen, if I give you all my wealth, can you prolong my life?" Li Congjing asked softly with hope.
Lin Beichen was stunned for a moment, then nodded stiffly.
He actually didn't know what this seemingly crazy woman wanted to do, but at this moment, he chose to agree.
As for prolonging his life, he was not completely sure, so he could only try his best.
After all, the effect of extending life cannot be felt in a short period of time, and he might be able to use some words to get away with it.
"Then, I am willing to give you all my wealth to help you complete your task. But I only hope that you can agree to extend the life of one person." The desire in Li Congjing's eyes made Lin Beichen feel a little uncomfortable.
Although he did not witness Li Congjing killing someone she trusted very much, he could feel that this woman was on the verge of emotional collapse.
Recalling the time when he met Li Congjing before, she was close to collapse. And now, her mind seems to be even more twisted. Although he knew that Li Congjing was not a good person, Lin Beichen still felt that for a person who still had a heart, collapse was a sympathetic state.
"Tell me, who needs to be saved?" Lin Beichen signaled Feiying and others who were lying in ambush nearby to stay calm and not act rashly.
"Joseph and I have three very powerful assistants," Li Congjing began to explain, "If there were no interference from those strange factors, each of them would be able to defeat you."
Lin Beichen's mouth curled up slightly. He deeply agreed with what Li Congjing said. But he still muttered in his heart, you need my help now, can you be a little respectful? Of course, he didn't say these words out loud. After all, if Li Congjing wanted to take action, most of the people here might suffer. Lin Beichen didn't have time to deal with this lunatic.
"I trust these three people very much. They occupy a very important position in my heart." Li Congjing continued, "Joseph has a very satisfied follower. Apart from me and another person, this follower is the one he values the most. You can call him Five."
Five? Lin Beichen showed a puzzled look. He knew that the fake Five he had seen before had been blown to death. Shouldn't the real Five be one of the three? Why did he have to be singled out?
However, Li Congjing did not explain his doubts, but continued: "Joseph and I have a son we recognize, although the child may not know our existence." At this point, her eyes revealed a hint of maternal tenderness. But such an expression on the face of a girl who looked like she was fourteen or fifteen years old made Lin Beichen feel a little weird.
"I hope you can find the child, extend his life, and tell him the name we gave him - Li Wensu." Li Congjing continued, "He may be called Black Robe now, or some people call him Eleven."
Lin Beichen nodded, indicating that he had memorized it. Li Congjing looked at him deeply, and then handed him something that looked like a recorder. "There are two audios in it. One is for me, but I have deleted it. The other one is what Joseph recorded specifically for you."
"There may be something you want in here." Li Congjing's face showed an innocent smile, which was in sharp contrast to her previous mood. Seeing that she was about to leave, Lin Beichen couldn't help but call her: "Is this all the wealth you mentioned?"
Li Congjing turned around, with a sly but sincere smile on her face. "Yes, this is all my wealth." After saying that, she turned around and skipped away, as carefree as a child after school. Looking at her back as she walked away, Lin Beichen couldn't help but feel surprised. She didn't seem to worry at all that he would attack her.
Watching Li Congjing walk further and further away, Lin Beichen returned to the bushes. Feiying, with a cold sweat on his face, looked at him and asked, "Lin Beichen, do you really want to help this woman?"
Lin Beichen nodded, a determined look on his face. Then he turned around and looked at the people who were also sweating and said, "In that case, let's listen to what's in this recorder."
He turned on the recorder and heard Joseph's voice.
After a few words, Joseph mentioned his expectations and hopes for Lin Beichen, hoping that he could explore the world beyond fate and see where the road beyond technology would lead. Lin Beichen was shocked after hearing this. He realized that there might be something special about him, and Joseph seemed to have seen through it. That is - he has a unique system.
Lin Beichen nodded slightly to show his understanding.
The people around him could only be bystanders. Although they could understand the meaning of Joseph's words, they could not empathize with him.
"The so-called crossing the threshold is nothing more than exchanging power for burning life. Some people have mediocre talents and limited potential, so their power is weak and their life consumes slowly."
"And I am gifted and have been extraordinary since I was young. I am the perfect tool. It should be so."
"But those two guys never expected that I was too smart. The speed at which I burn my life force is four times faster than that of an ordinary person."
"In other words, for every day others spend, I have already gone through four days."
"Now, I feel that my life is coming to an end, so I decided to die at your hands today. After all, in a way, you are the one who truly transcends."
Joseph sneered and expressed disdain for Li Congjing's father's self-righteousness.
Lin Beichen didn't say anything after hearing this.
He knew nothing about what Joseph said and felt like a blind man, at a loss.
This feeling was unpleasant, but he had no words to say. He could only ask the man named Five for advice in the future.
Just as Lin Beichen was lost in thought, Joseph boasted, "Next, I will tell you the root cause of the failure of those self-righteous guys."
Lin Beichen glanced at Feiying and others around him and fell silent. Although Joseph was a murderer and a psychopath, he exuded an irresistible personal charm. Lin Beichen actually respected him. Although this thought was absurd, it was hard to suppress. He continued to listen to the words of Joseph, who had passed away but still controlled the overall situation.
"I know very well that human hearts are hard to predict. Even if I knew that Li Congjing would fall in love with someone else, I would be powerless to do anything." Joseph said it lightly, but Lin Beichen could feel his deep affection for Li Congjing.
"I have no regrets in death, even though I was betrayed by the person I loved the most." Joseph talked about his death in a joking tone.
"For a strong man like me, it's normal to take two people with me after my death." He decided the fate of two important figures in a nonchalant manner.
Lin Beichen listened silently, feeling deeply the power of Joseph.
"The destiny I set for everyone is betrayal." Joseph said, and then fell into deep thought, "Lin Beichen, do you know? For people like us, this kind of unpredictable thing is truly fascinating. Because I couldn't guess Li Congjing's heart, I went to death calmly. However, when my life was about to end, I found a way to make her change her mind."
"My life cannot be saved, and the plan has been activated." He expressed incomparable pain, "Do you understand the feeling of thinking you are in control of everything, but finding out that you are just a plaything of fate? Although I know that fate does not exist."
Joseph's voice gradually faded away. Just when everyone thought it was over, he spoke again with a smug look on his face: "I almost forgot to say that you are the only ones who know about the matter of continuing to burn life after crossing the threshold. Of course, there is also my beloved Miss Li. The pain I brought to her should be regarded as her apology for making me struggle between love and abandonment for so many years, enjoying the contrast between the pleasure of being intimate with her and the sadness of foreseeing separation. After all, I have been a bad person from beginning to end."
Li Qiao stared at the middle-aged man opposite him with an indifferent expression, and stood behind him for a while.
Li Qiao wanted to say something but stopped, but he had already lost the chance. The greasy middle-aged man held the gun in his left hand, and smoke was coming out of the muzzle.
Li Qiao gave a bitter smile and collapsed to the ground. "I... thought..." he muttered to himself, but it was too late to save the situation.
Outsiders may not understand why, but Li Qiao knows it very well.
This greasy middle-aged man was once a capable member of Joseph's mercenary team and his confidant.
Therefore, when Jiu sent him here, Li Qiao was completely unprepared. After all, who would be on guard against a brother-in-law who loved his sister so much?
However, the middle-aged man's face was solemn at this moment. He turned his head and stared at Jiu coldly: "Where is the treasure you mentioned?" Jiu looked back indifferently and slowly walked to Li Qiao. The middle-aged man witnessed all this, but did not speak out to stop it.
The greasy man and the middle-aged man looked at each other, and the air was filled with tension. The middle-aged man actually felt the long-lost fear of the weak. He narrowed his eyes, then forced a smile and asked, "What do you want to do?" The greasy man remained silent, and the atmosphere became more and more weird.
"Do you know why there are only Li Qiao and I here?" the greasy man suddenly asked.
The middle-aged man, Miles, chuckled and responded, "I really don't know." He was obviously stalling for time.
"Because others are watching you in the dark." The greasy man revealed the answer.
Miles twitched the corner of his mouth; he had already noticed these gazes.
But after entering this place, they had no way to retreat. He suspected that since Joseph's death, those soldiers who did not participate in the rebellion had fallen into the hands of Li Qiao and others.
This road is the secret passage of Joseph and Li Congjing. It is narrow and easy to defend but difficult to attack.
A trace of sadness flashed across Jiu's face, and he felt sorry for Li Qiao.
"Master knew your feelings towards Li Congjing. However, he did not kill you because he regarded you as an ignorant child. You are Li Congjing's only relative, and he did not want to make her sad again." Jiu's words were full of memories. "Master once planned to pass on his mantle to you, but you were greedy, tyrannical, and short-sighted. You thought you were in control of everything and extremely smart, but in fact you were extremely stupid. Master gave you the opportunity to make mistakes, but you did not cherish it.
